RE: So you think you own your content on steem – Sorry to tell you…..

in #steem5 years ago

I just created my account here earlier today, hopeful that it could be supplemental & of course fun. I really don't know much about Steemit yet, aside from 1 or 2 people saying "You can make tons of money on there!"

Sort:  

Tons of money? You cannot even earn enough to buy bread. You can invest tons of money that is the idea of Steemit inc.

Well, I guess investing is still really good!

Well, welcome!

Have you ever noticed... no matter what people say, it what was not said that you think would have been more useful when you look back a year from now. (it would not)

Go the the search link / bar at the top of the page. Opens a custom search page. Enter "new user". Start consuming insightful content that you shudder to think you might have overlooked.

There are more roles you can choose to fulfill here than it may appear. Different paths / different views. Go for what you want to do and not for what you might get.

Quite true.
Thank you!

"You can make tons of money on there!"
this is for sure the wrong message to give to people and if you are here for that reason, I wouldn't bother. but if you are here as you are passionate about your creations, or you are looking for a community to join, then this is an awesome place.

Yeah, money is always the selling point for things like this though. I mean, yeah, it's nice to get compensation for all the work put into making videos & such, but that's not the main reason for doing it.
Thanks!
